It sounds like: you may have "Gilbert's Syndrome" a BENIGN elevation of" unconjugated "("direct") Bilirubin! This elevation is NORMAL for YOU!!! (It may vary depending upon your general health! BTW It sounds like you may be "worried" about your alcohol consumption ..this is i=often a sign that you are drinking too much....Just sayin Hope this helps! Dr Z
